“The un-concealing of something we never imagined …” — Pete Rollins
Quote of the year.
I think that’s what Jyn Erso was thinking when she set out on that Rogue One journey.
Yup.
Most definitely.
I mean Darth Vader in charge of the Universe?
Definitely sounds like the dark path ahead.
Definitely freaking everyone out right now, definitely freaked everyone out in the Star Wars Galaxy. So they banded together, a motley crew indeed, of The Goonies proportions. A blind guy, with awesome ninja skills and a powerful sidekick, who believed in the power of The Force. A pilot who realized he was on the wrong side and decided to do the right thing and join The Resistance, a reprogrammed android who is surprisingly hilarious throughout the entire movie reminding us that we need laughter during strife, and an Intelligence Officer who served in the Alliance and chose to believe in Jyn, to believe in a cause bigger than him.
In time of conflict, ordinary people choose to do extraordinary things and in doing so create hope for the future. Even though they died, hope and resilience rose from a Darth Vader cloak of tyranny. Their idea for a better future endured. I mean all you need is an idea … and some ninja skills.
I mean look at Luke and Leia Skywalker for crying out loud. Princess Leia … what a great character. Rest In Peace.
We’re sure to have some Skywalker type of people in 2017. Some Jyn and Captain Cassian leaders out there who fight the good fight, head the resistance. and continue being a beacon of hope, continue being resilient.
Resilient. Something needed for 2017. Definitely need to endure. Hope is resilient.

Hermana,
You are a fine example of resiliency. Great post. And…..don’t be too hard on Darth Vader, okay? He’s just misunderstood, 🙂
I wish you a happy, healthy 2017.
It waaaaaas a good one. Good adventure in the day time, good food at night, good laughs, Kings won 🙂 and had some more good night time fun knocking down pins with the kids at the bowling alley. Overall better than I imagined. Bottled-up some good vibes and warm hugs. Hope you had a good one brother 🙂 always great hearing from you. Buen Camino
Your observations are dead-on, my friend.
All the best to you and yours.
